I WANT TO ENCOURAGE A MORE CONSTRUCTIVE DISCUSSION OVER RACE RELATIONS ON NT

-What you gonna say if even more Latinos identify as white, and choose white over Latinos on the form?
From the 2000 to 2010 census, there was a jump in the number of Latinos that identified there race as white. LINK
-Remember when you thought the Supreme Court was not gonna let smae sex marriage happen a few years back. How that work out?
I know you be seeing the papi-on-papi love flourishing up in Hudson Heights.
If you would've read da latino rebel article it immediately disputes that NY times article...i even quoted da author when he says..
You latino rebel article disputes it yes, but it doesn't refute it.
The author of the latino rebel piece seems to have a hard time reading the statistical results presented in the New York Times and Pew Research.
Not only that, the author seems to really misrepresenting what the times piece is arguing. It is not just about Latinos identifying as white just cause, it is about assimilation, and that younger generations may be driving this shift in the categorizing of race. Because at the end of the day, the census numbers are about people subjectively self identifying.
The Times article ends like this:
-So all I'm asking is what if the trend continues, the the net effect is still Latino towards white, what would you say then.

That is not a good excuse, Joey full of ****.
If black people are not in any way your people, if your want to keep their history and your history distinct, to make sure people know they are different "culture", then that word shouldn't coming out your mouth. Period
But like Paul Mooney said, Everyone Wants To Be A *****, but nobody wanna be a *****

Ninja told us that all the street vendors on Grand ****course call him Spanish boy, that is good enough for me. Let famb self identify as what he wants
Plus when he and Steezy start talking sideways about black folk, it is just one more things to smack dem wit.

It's true Rust. I remember when I filled it out.
The options were somethings like:
White
Black
Pacific Islander
I'm looking at that damn like these dudes...
I remember I went with white but I was real tight that I had to do that.
Until they put a Hispanic option I'm not going to fill that part again.

I feel you famb. What I'm saying, and what the Times article point out, is that there are younger Latinos that didn't themselves fill out forms in the last census (they weren't a head of the household, or for some other reason), but will in the next ones. And they might self identify as white
I'm not trying to say you and Ninja wrong. And I work with CPS data, looking an income gaps, so I welcome the new options.
But you Latinos are unique in many ways, the generational aspect is one of them. Like our mans ninja would say, y'all ain't a monolith, so there is possibly that they got some folk that rock wit white first and foremost. And haven't got the chance to express that

If he was also saying ignorant stuff about the white community to go along with that, I'm sure a few people would
Real talk brah, you got an issue with black people and the way they "act".You can't resist making these sweeping judgments, time and time again
Plus before he left before, weren't you were one of the dudes coming it at him for his stuff too
The thing is regardless of what you guys think I don't have anything against black people....I'm just a very vocally opinionated NTer and sometimes I end up putting my foot in my mouth with the way I may word things.
However this agenda with ninja is borderline sic...lol why are dudes so invested in labeling him black?....I never came at him for this, the only thing I cracked on ninja about was his living conditions....never about how he identifies because I'm Hispanic and I totally get where he's coming from....as a Latino, we don't like to be labeled as anything else other than Latino or our country of origin....not a color....somehow to some NTer this is too hard to accept.

I'm pretty sure the Latinos that identified as white because there really wasn't a legit option for us to choose from, were NOT of Ninjas complexion....I'm sure if Ninja was forced to pick between Pacific Islander/black/white the man will pick black....just like Diego or myself would be forced to pick white, because obviously we are not black/darkskinned so yes is about time Da Cesus made Da corrections.

Self preservation and identity is super important, but these groups are hella weak. They could front all they want to themselves, whatever helps.

Serious question....do Ninja and them consider people from Guinea as "Hispanic" or "Spanish"?

As a grown adult I've had to make a conscious effort to wipe the use of that word from my vocabulary, because now I know better....however growing up in the hood, specially in NY...that word was a part of how we all communicated, as a kid I said it and no one in my hood had an issue with it, no one in school had an issue with it, because regardless of skin color, we all grew up in the same street culture....I don't think ninja or anyone else as an adult should use that word tho.

The word never had anything to do with street culture though.

The question is why do African American bros want these groups to identify as blacks ?
They are not important, they don't matter one bit. Although it is humane to look for connection, the thirst for connection to irrelevant sub groups is mad weak. They imitate the culture cuz they come from the third world and are trying to relate, nothing more.

I know but is how a lot of us were first exposed to it, from the music we listened to, the way we spoke amongst our selves growing up in the hood.
Like I said, as a kid i didn't know any better as Boone around me regardless of skin color felt uncomfortable with anyone saying it....as an adult I've been exposed to more than just a couple of street blocks, so now I know better
